If this is your first time driving a car in Nis, our advice is to stay calm and take your time. As already mentioned, remember to drive on the right. Signage in Nis isn’t consistent or obviously placed therefore we’d also recommend for your own peace of mind to consider hiring a GPS to ensure you can navigate around Belgrade with ease (ask at the rental counter for details).

Like most cities, parking around Nis does come at a cost however most places tend to offer free parking on Sundays. There are also a number of tolls on the motorways in Serbia and the fees will vary depending on the size of your vehicle, they roughly range from 3 euros to 6.50 euros. Remember to keep some spare cash on you for parking and tolls.

TheMediana - On the eastern outskirts of Niš and a short walk from Ćele Kula, is what remains of Constantine's 4th-century Roman palace. Digging has revealed a palace, mosaics, forum and an expansive grain-storage area.

The Niš Fortress - While its current incarnation was built by the Turks in the 18th century, there have been forts on this site since ancient Roman times. Today it's a sprawling recreational area with restaurants, cafes, market stalls and ample space for moseying. It hosts the Nišville International Jazz Festival each August and Nišomnia , featuring rock and electro acts, in September. The city's main pedestrian boulevard, Obrenovićeva, stretches before the citadel.
